Dr. Mindbender has come out in the Defense of Cobra Island pks. check the various boards and some of the army builders MIGHT have one for trade.

Lava Boss 04-02-2011 07:58 PM

Maybe he meant Renegades Mindbender.

They need to get out of the CC/Destro/Storm Shadow/FIrefly character box for Cobra more often. Yeah, Renegades versions are nice and deserved, but they should've made Bludd or Mindbender and held off on Firefly. Bludd is underrepresented and Mindbender hasn't had a retail release since 2004.

Some neat looking stuff, but it appears there's just two new vehicles coming, that Cobra aircraft, and the remade Sky Striker. Not much for vehicle fans. Not surprised by that, though.

Ah haven't watched the series so forgot about that one. lol

Otto the Otter 04-02-2011 10:46 PM

If HASBRO actually release all these figures, I'll be happy. There are some really good ones coming out. The Renegades figs will go with the rest of the ME figs, a little off, but will still fit.

Goldbug 04-03-2011 12:12 AM

  • Renegades Scarlett - definately want!
  • Renegades Tunnel Rat - meh never cared for this version of TR, likely fodder
  • Renegades Ripcord - wonder how he looks without the vest, could make him into Big Lob
  • Renegades Airtight - YES!
  • Renegades Law and Order - Wow what a large badge! Other than that cool!
  • Renegades Cobra Trooper - Hmmm perhaps re-assign them to be M. Bison's troops
  • Data Viper - pass
  • Kwinn - AWESOME!
  • Lifeline - EXCELLENT! Look at all the cool gear! Seems like he needs a Tomahawk to ride in now.
  • Zombie Viper - Hmm interesting, was never a fan of zombies KOP must be scared of these! :D I doubt Cobra or anyone could ever actually control a zombie.

troopsofdoom 04-03-2011 07:45 AM

Same stuff at Generals Joes but the pics are a bit better.
http://generalsjoes.com/2011/04/02/...con-2011-day-2/

Scarlett: She finally gets a figure I'm completely happy with. (Resolute was close except for the head.)

Data-Viper: I like the design, great to see some new ideas. Looks anime influenced like the Jungle-Viper. I expect this to be a love it or hate it figure.

Cobra Trooper: Looks better than in the cartoon. Can always us a new Blue-shirt.

Kwinn: Looks good. Hope he gets his traditional .30 when released, instead of the .50.

Zombie-Viper: Zombies? The lamest of the horror monsters. Maybe if it wasn't blue it could be used as a corpse.

Most of the other figures are good but I already have other versions I'm happy with.

zedhatch 04-03-2011 08:47 AM

Technically they are 30th's but still LOL.

Most of the renagades stuff is a major turn off, repeated characters and all that. The really noteable exception is Scarlett who looks great (thank GOD she doesn't have that squinty eyed look of "Clutch just pinched me" like she does in Renagades. ) Her fig ends up being a very workable one, one of the best since her Comic pack version from DTC.

Zombie Viper-Can't help but laugh, in a good way he is a must have.

Kwinn-Finally it only took 30 years to get a decent one. I had actually given up.

Data-Viper-Freaky, but I have to admit I like it.

Airtight-Awesome, really am loving how the funky color figures are getting out. THese are the exact ones I always thought worked in that realm.

Lifeline fits as well, really likeing this.

That's the beauty of it! Zombies on the loose and the only way to stop them is for Destro and the Baroness to team up with the Joe's to destroy them. And besides I know all you Duke haters out there would love to see a Zombie take a chunk out of his skull! ;)

True but I'm thinking Renegades cartoon will have them controlling them. :rolleyes:
However....
B.A.T.s vs Zombies! :D

Scarlett looks great, but Zarana - holy crap, she looks fantastic.

unfortunately she's only available during or at the SDCC or another Slaughter debacle coming up.

The Renegades figures look great. However, Roadblock is missing!

yeah? RB, Dr.Minbender,Flint and Lady Jaye!!!
All the figures look great to me, that some times changes in hand. Hopefully we get to enjoy these figures and none get canceled.
It was official about Walmart not carrying Joes and Hasbro said they were gonna work that out. They sold well here can't understand why Wally world would pull them from the shelves!?!

I kept hitting WMs and my gf has to go to at least 2 different WMs a day because of her job and there was old stock for months except for 2-3 new ones early on. I only was able to find a shock viper this week because of her and it was buried in pegs of almost 100% destros. I dont blame WM for not wanting to carry it, they get stuck with warmers too much to keep ordering. 10,000 yrs from now, they will dig up our civilization and find destros all over the place and thing we worshipped him or something. I still see neo vipers and others from that wave in some stores, it get that bad. I can go to Ross or another store like that and get newer ones than some WMs still have.

Also check the o-ringed stuff and vehicles that were cancelled in those pics at the bottom of the page. Baroness with Ravage and Maulers. :(

I can see why that stuff was canceled, I wouldn't have bought any of it. Although I would really like to get my hands on a Mauler... but not in Cobra blue.

Reverend Blood 04-05-2011 02:02 PM

the data viper looks awesome. i hope there's a head under that control helmet, even if it is another balaclava troop builder.

and renegades tunnel rat's bomb disposal robot is an excellent addition, AND it's modern sculpt tunnel rat with his eyes open.

in fact there was another thread on this forum where we discussed just how cool a UAV and bomb disposal bot would be for modern joes. hopefully the joes will get their own UAV soon

acmillerjr 04-05-2011 04:22 PM

Yes!!!
 
Airtight and Lifeline- Thank you it's about time!

TexasHiro 04-05-2011 10:23 PM

I'm excited about a lot of these figs! Can't wait for the Renegades line up.

The bomb disposal bot is not that new.

Yea but for those of us who didn't get the Walmart outpost defender it'll be new. :p

Cobra Freak 04-06-2011 02:02 PM

Oh yeah!!! those are some sweet figures and the diorama's they had set up were really wicked too!

roguetiger 04-08-2011 03:15 PM

http://www.gijoecon.com/fl2011/webf...C_8487.JPG.html another pic of a vehicle that got decommissioned..:( I'd have bought it but it looks like it would have been loaded down with lites and sounds. :(

seyms 04-09-2011 09:32 PM

OMG the Howler! Like the Renegades Black Dragon, however, it appears very small.

Ahh, ok then. Too bad it was not released.

I'd much rather have paid $35-$40 for the Howler than that "Night Raven"

seyms 04-10-2011 01:18 PM

Yeh, me too. So many fans are clamouring for a troop transport already. Maybe the Howler will be in the next movie, so they will release the toy.

roguetiger 04-15-2011 01:38 PM

http://www.joedeclassified.com/foru...8acd97b1e0d434c in hand pics of the new Vipers......wrist articulation and chrome helmet...... :eek: WHY couldn't they be like that when they first came out..... :( And NO these aren't my pics...... Plus if you look they have Crazy Legs, Rock Viper, Croc Master, and Iron Grenadier all there as well...each its own section.

Dersham 04-15-2011 04:02 PM

that howler looks and sounds awesome. I'm crying on the inside a little here.

roguetiger 06-07-2011 12:21 PM

the Data Viper has officially been cancelled in the future waves..

Lava Boss 06-07-2011 03:01 PM

They realized fans didn't want anything new, just the same 7 characters over and over... :rolleyes:

silentdusty 06-08-2011 09:41 AM

Yes I'm sure 2 or 3 new versions of Duke, Snake Eyes, and Storm Shadow are in the mix over the next year.

Prince Adam 06-08-2011 09:53 AM

I'm sure it has to do with the fact that he has a lot of new gear and it just doesn't work with the price point.
